My question is why bring out the summit??? It seems to me that they realized that there was still a demand for the Manta after dropping it last year.
Maybe I'm crazy, but, I would have just came out calling it the Manta 4. After all they are going on to state that this is filling the gap that the
Manta left behind. Unless there is some real significant differences that will separate it completely from the Frenzy and M3. Anyway, its good to see
the three kite line-up again.
what I fly/ride:
19m Flysurfer Speed 2 SA
12m Flysurfer Speed2
6m Ozone access xt
1.5m Ozone imp trainer
144cm Airush Switch
152cm lib tech skate banana
MBS Pro 90
Jereme Leafe Pro 95

part of me wonders if this is a response to the higher aspect demand, ie, the impressive speed3 sales.

But it looks to go to only 12m. They need to have a 14 or15 in there IMO.

I heard one of the goals addressed by the C shape was to make it a looping machine - not just for...well looping but for climbing with the kite. Rumor
has it I'm gonna have my hands on a Summit bar this winter! Shaggs, make sure you keep some christmas time open to head to Sylvan Lake - usually
around the 27th. I'm doing some work for a guy named Transcanada Tom and he and his partner might bring out all the FSer and Ozone gear for us to play
with.

Addin it to the schedule. Suppose to be in Edmonton for Boxing Day and overnight so it would be fairly easy to toss in the kite gear when we go.

nice,
give a bit of a reminder closer to the date,
p5 could be in, wouldn't mind trying a c4 in there too if some tubes make it. a 10m/8m day would be great, although wouldn't mind trying some big
speeds if it's a low wind day too.
